The PhD specialisation of the Department of Professional and Intercultural Communication provides PhD candidates with a solid training in the production of high quality research within one of the department’s four research areas.
The PhD training programme open to candidates who have funding from NHH or external funding. It is based on close cooperation with other national and international institutions offering similar programmes.
The PhD candidates must undertake relevant course work equivalent to 45 ECTS. The course portfolio includes obligatory courses in Research Ethics, Theory of Science and Academic Writing, as well as elective thematic courses, e.g. organised by the national PhD school in linguistics until 2021 (Language and Text: Methodologies and Applications for the Digital Age, formerly Lingphil).
Given the international focus of the Department, the students are strongly encouraged to carry out part of their scholarship/coursework abroad.
Candidates may be included in the department’s current research projects.
Qualifying education should normally be a master’s degree in one of the following languages: English, German, French, Norwegian or Spanish. Candidates holding a master’s degree in general linguistics are also eligible. In addition to the master’s degree, emphasis will be placed on the relevance of the master’s thesis to the Department’s research areas. Some formal education in economics, business administration or other social sciences is an advantage.
Candidates who have passed the National Translator Accreditation Exam in addition to a relevant master’s degree are encouraged to apply.
A good command of a Scandinavian language is desirable.
